Back in the room, Ye Qianqian picked up the phone to look through WeChat. She immediately saw the selfie Ye Youyou had posted.
In the photo, Ye Youyou’s long hair was on her shoulder, revealing the side of her delicate face. She slightly smiled. Behind her was a retro telephone. It probably belonged to the Shen family.
The photo’s caption was, “Content is happiness.” Seeing those three words, Ye Qianqian inexplicably felt sad.
For her younger sister, who was not with her from childhood, Ye Qianqian felt not only sympathetic but also envious.
She sympathized with Ye Youyou for being unhappy in a reconst.i.tuted family as a child. But, she envied the wealth of her family, as well as the field of vision and circles that Ye Qianqian couldn’t contact.
They were all from a reconst.i.tuted family, but Ye Qianqian was with the mother. Her stepfather was an honest wage earner.
She clicked the like b.u.t.ton of Ye Youyou’s photo and sent a smile sticker.
…
Seeing Ye Qianqian’s ma.s.sage, Ye Youyou smiled. She quickly put the phone away.
Shen Luo’an was busy with work. After the Winter Solstice, he continued to be busy.
The people at home were all busy. Shen Zhilie and Shen Manting needed to go to Kingstown together. Ye Youyou also had something to do there, so they agreed to go together.
Beyond everyone’s expectation, the old lady refused to let Ye Youyou leave. Her att.i.tude was tough. She wanted her to stay one more day, so Ye Youyou had to stay.
Shen Zhilie and Shen Manting left. Right after they left, old Mrs. Shen said, “I have to go to Kingstown.”
Seeing Ye Youyou’s confused expression, old Mrs. Shen was gave a sneer and asked with an acrid tone, “What? As an actress, are you afraid of taking an old woman out? Are afraid of shaming?”
Ye Youyou was surprised by her words. She quickly waved her hand and said, “No such thing, Grandma, I don’t dare to. But, it will take a long time to get to Kingstown. If we take an airplane, I am afraid…”
“I took the high-speed train last time, so let’s take it this time.” Old Mrs. Shen glanced at Ye Youyou still wearing a proud look. Noticing Ye Youyou’s embarra.s.sment, old Mrs. Shen unhappily said, “You’re not willing?”
“Just now, brother-in-law and sister-in-law were all together, why didn’t you…”
“They won’t take me there,” old Mrs. Shen said. “If Longyue discovers, they will definitely be abused.”
Ye Youyou didn’t say anything. I will be abused, too. Moreover, because I’m an outsider, I will be abused even worse!
Old Mrs. Shen seemed to understand her thoughts but didn’t care. She looked at her proudly and said, “You don’t want to? You said yesterday that you would be filial, but now you have already forgotten. You’re really hypocritical!”
Ye Youyou felt taking her was inappropriate. “Grandma, shouldn’t we ask Mom and Dad?”
“I know you don’t want to take me with you! If you tell them, they won’t let me out!” Old Mrs. Shen was furious. She stood up from the sofa and angrily said, “Forget it! I will go by myself. You just want me to go out alone and be killed, don’t you?”
Ye Youyou couldn’t listen to that kind of talking. She gently reached out to the old lady and said, “Grandma, I will take you there!”
Old Mrs. Shen seemed to have expected it. She snorted, “Go help me pack things. We will leave in the afternoon.”
Ye Youyou looked at her and nodded.
